Washington, D.C.--A closely watched religious persecution case that had been pending at the U.S. Supreme Court has been resolved in favor of the man seeking asylum. The Pacific Justice Institute (PJI) had asked the Supreme Court to review his petition so that he not be sent back to his persecutors in China. In May, PJI filed an amicus curiae (“friend of the court”) brief asking the Supreme Court to review the ruling of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit in Xue v. Sessions. The case’s appellant, Ting Xue, is a Christian who fled China for the United States seeking religious asylum.
